For me, the best thing about membership is being on this forum. You can ask questions, get advice on just about anything and get a laugh.
Financial Savings, yes savings - I renewed my Personal liability and Prof. Indemnity insurance last week, and being a member here knocked about £200 off the premium..... That'll pay my SWPP subs for 2 years!
Qualifications, critique and - We all know we can take a good photo, some better than others, but if any one of us becomes complacent and decides they know it all, the game's up. It might be cliche but I for one want to continue to improve my photography, and even simple things like preparing a shot for the weekly wedding competition gives me the motivation to do so.
Referrals - It's a great advertising platform, and clients automatically feel reassured when they see you're a member of a professional body.- Ewan C

John Henshall, the internationally acclaimed, and often outspoken, digital imaging guru, has been awarded a Master of Arts Honorary degree by the University for the Creative Arts, for his ‘profound influence,’ in the development of digital photography technologies over the past twenty years.

Said Henshall, who trained as a BBC cameramen and worked extensively as Director of Photography on programmes such as ‘Spitting Image’: “This is a wonderful and completely unexpected honour for me. It’s true that some of my press articles and seminar topics met with scepticism and opposition in some quarters of the photographic industry but I was simply arguing the case that digital was not a threat but an opportunity for all of us in the industry.”

John is speaking at the 2010 Convention:

Stock Photography – Can It Still Pay Your Mortgage In A Recession And Promise You A Free Pension? (Masterclass)

Minimalist Lighting - Professional Techniques for Studio

Working from the studio used to be a complicated and expensive task requiring great skill and extensive equipment to ensure that the imagery was as effective as location photography. Now a more minimalist approach is not only possible, but preferable thanks to developments in camera and lighting technologies. Minimalist Lighting explores how this shift can be exploited with less complexity and a smaller budget, which offers the reader more flexibility than ever before to create varied, sophisticated imagery from their studios.
